Watt Counts supplies over 5,000 energy measurements across 50 LLMs and 10 GPUs and shows that hardware-aware selection can reduce server-scenario energy use by up to 70 percent with little effect on user experience.

Execution-idle accounts for 19.7% of GPU execution time and 10.7% of energy in a large cluster, motivating power management that treats it as a distinct operating state.
LLM inference should be reframed and evaluated as energy-to-token production with a Token Production Function that accounts for power, cooling, and efficiency ceilings.
The Workload-Router-Pool architecture is a 3D framework for LLM inference optimization that synthesizes prior vLLM work into a 3x3 interaction matrix and proposes 21 research directions at the intersections.
A systematic review finds research on the sustainability of LLM-generated code to be limited, fragmented, and without accepted frameworks for measurement or benchmarking.
